The writer attempts to describe the impact of the increased possibility of dying during the Syrian civil conflict on Syrian Christians and how they experienced the multiple dangers during this period. The fear of extinction in the minority helped the Syrian regime bring them to its side in this crisis and prevented them from embracing oppositional politics, pressuring them to accept through media propaganda, state propaganda and other measures that only it can guarantee their existence in the country.
